Missions trip

Over Sun-Wed I was on a missions trip.  It was a very powerful experience for me.  It was a lot of hard work and a lot of serving.  We went to a place called Marie Sandvicks were we heard some story's from the person who ran it that were horrifying.  But it helped all of us to realize that we are not in a perfect world, and that everyone needs the love of Jesus.  

We got to pack boxes at second harvest, which mounted to a total of 1401 boxes of food which would go to over a 1000 different service organizations.  We also packed boxes at Feed My Starving Children, where we made enough boxes of food to feed 27 children for a year in some orphanage in another place in the world.

I was so glad that I got to go, there were so many cool experiences and I hope that I will be able to do more in the future.

Off to the races

Tonight we are going to the races.  They are called to outlaw cars.  They go pretty fast and it is on a dirt track so there is dirt and loud noises all over the place.  Tons of dirt goes up into the stands so you have to bring goggles so that it does not get in your eyes.  I'm pretty excited and I am trying to waste time before we go.
